My first web dev project in Javascript and D3.js visualizes the impact of Obamacare, built for Kaiser Family Foundation. I have learned through this effort that, to make complex interactions, it does not suffice to speak only a few words of the language of the web. The syntax of a site is just as intricate as that of a building.
